It is! :thumb: I think there was a segment on those revolvers, on Wednesday Night At The Range, on the Outdoor channel, last night.

I'm very knowledgeable on the area that revolver was carried in. Back then the biggest concern would have been livestock and a potential commie spy breaching the plant. The job would have been considered a "cake walk" compared to the Dearborn plant, where for many years a marker stood off site to mark where Dearborn PD and guards killed layed off workers who attempted to over run the grounds (depending on which version of the story you believe).
A great piece of history you've got there.

Geez that's dark... I suppose it was a good thing those guns were chambered in .38 S&W rather than a more potent cartridge, otherwise there would have likely been more fatalities.I'm very knowledgeable on the area that revolver was carried in.
